Chapter 125 Shy
Pei Yian knew the identity of this person as soon as Du Xuan entered the backyard. Although this person covered himself tightly, he was very good at observation and knew the identity of the person as soon as he came in.
However, this person was almost the same as what he had guessed, and Manager Guo could no longer bear it and started to take action.
Du Xuan's joy was shattered. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He knew that his plan had failed. When he turned around to escape, he found that the man in black who was in his group had locked the door.
He didn't believe it, so he opened the cookbook that contained hope, and found that it was not a recipe at all. Putting everything together, he realized that he had been cheated!
trap!
This is a trap, a trap to lure yourself out of.
Du Xuan looked at the man in black fiercely, as if he wanted to devour him.
The man in black looked away. He was just trying to protect himself. He had no other choice. Besides, why was he looking at him like that? It was obvious that this man was going to do something bad. Why was he holding a grudge against him?
Du Xuan knew that he was completely exposed and there was no possibility of escape. He began to think in his mind what he should do.
Thinking of his mother who was still in bed and in urgent need of treatment, he knew very well that he must not let this matter be connected with Manager Guo.
He lowered his head, remained silent, and ignored Pei Yian's greeting.
Zhou Yayi stayed to watch a good show tonight. He stepped forward and tore off the gauze on the person in front of him, and Du Xuan's entire face was exposed to everyone.
"Tell me, who sent you?"
Du Xuan was determined to remain silent and did not say anything.
"If I remember correctly, you are Manager Guo's man?" Pei Yian pointed out directly.
"No, I have nothing to do with Manager Guo." Du Xuan denied hurriedly, fearing that this matter would be related to Manager Guo.
"If it's not him, why are you so panicked?" Zhou Yayi fixed his eyes on the person in front of him, trying to read something from his face.
Du Xuan also realized that he was too emotional before, giving people the illusion that he was trying to hide something. He immediately adjusted his expression and remained silent.
"Zhou Yayi, could you please detain these two people with ulterior motives and take them away? And at the same time, make this matter public."
"No problem." This was not a difficult task, and Zhou Yayi agreed.
Ji Zhisui lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling with empty eyes, but he couldn't fall asleep.
Although her mind was clear, she still couldn't sleep at all. The scene of Pei Yian pinching her face and telling her to go to bed early would always suddenly appear in her mind.
When she thought of these things, her mind became a mess and she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
The warmth on his face, which had already subsided, rose again because of the images in his mind. He felt guilty and irritated. As he stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, he heard a noise coming from the yard.
Her heart instantly rose in her chest. Could it be that a thief had come in at this hour?
Ji Zhisui, whose mind was in a mess, immediately sat up from the bed. She stood up and walked to the door, carefully opened it a little to see what was going on outside.
Her room faced the yard, and there was indeed someone standing outside. However, the more she looked at the figure, the more familiar it looked. It was not a thief, but Pei Yian.
Did he come back at this time to capture everyone with Zhou Yayi?
After resolving the matter, Pei Yian naturally did not plan to stay in the restaurant. When he returned home, he knew that his family members were probably asleep at this time, so he did not dare to make too much noise.
In this quiet environment, the slight sound of a door opening is particularly striking.
He looked in the direction where the sound came from, and his eyes met Sui Niang's. Ji Zhisui didn't know why, but he slammed the door shut, isolating himself from everything.
Ji Zhisui held his face in his hands and buried his head, trying to pretend that nothing had happened before.
But the reality was not as she wished.
Pei Yian knocked lightly on the door and whispered, "Sui Niang, why aren't you asleep at this hour? Did I wake you up?"
Ji Zhisui really wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She was not woken up at all, because she was not asleep at all.
But she still had to deal with people outside, so she was unwilling to say that it was because An Ge pinched her face and started to have wild thoughts that she couldn't say it.
He just replied vaguely: "I...I just got up and wanted to drink some water..."
"Okay, then go to bed early. I've almost finished cleaning up here, so I won't disturb you."
After saying this, Ji Zhisui heard footsteps gradually fading away.
Her fingers began to unconsciously stroke the corners of her clothes again, but she herself did not notice these small movements.
She licked her lips which were a little dry due to nervousness. It seemed that she really needed some water. Only after she could no longer hear the footsteps did Ji Zhisui open her door a crack. After making sure that there was no one in the yard, she dared to come out of the room.
He entered the kitchen in the dark moonlight and poured himself a glass of water to quench his thirst.
After the cold water went down his throat, Ji Zhisui felt his mind clear up a lot. Thinking about his own stupid behavior that night, he simply couldn't bear to look straight...
She decided to attribute all her abnormal behavior tonight to a problem with her brain, but now her mind was clear and she would not be affected by Pei Yian's emotions again.
But when she saw Pei Yian passing by, she squatted down again. She didn't want to face him for the time being.
Pei Yian naturally also noticed that something was wrong with Sui Niang. She seemed to be deliberately avoiding him.
Was it because I had gone too far tonight? Or was it because Sui Niang was finally feeling shy?
If it was the latter, Pei Yian raised the corners of his mouth in a nice arc. At least his behavior could make Sui Niang react, and she no longer looked clueless.
He was tactful enough not to go forward and disturb her, letting Sui Niang process her emotions on her own. If he continued to approach her, perhaps all his efforts would be wasted and he would be back to square one.
Sui Niang is open-minded, but knows nothing about love. However, if she really finds something wrong, she will immediately retract her head. He returned to his room and pretended not to notice someone's evasive movements.
Seeing that Pei Yian didn't notice him, Ji Zhisui hurriedly stood up, returned to the room, lay on the bed, counted sheep and closed his eyes to sleep.
I don't feel guilty!
Manager Guo waited and paced in the room most of the night, but as dawn was about to break, Du Xuan still had not returned to report to him. He suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. Could it be that the plan had failed?
A gleam of light flashed in Manager Guo's eyes. If this was true, he absolutely could not get involved in this matter!
